Voice:	"That woman..."

Voice:	"Impossible..."

Pg. 7

Yanagi:	["Ah...]
		"After that, I can't remember!"
		["Where is this place?"]
		["I'm scared...I'm scared!!  I'm terrified..."]
		["Recca-kun..."]
		"!"
		["Who's coming...!!"]

Pg. 8

Masked Man:	"So, you've awaken, young lady!!"

Yanagi:	["A mask!!"]
		["Who is he!?"]

Masked Man:	"I apologize for my bad manners-"
		"Pleased to meet you..."
		"I am named Kurei."

Pg. 9

Yanagi:	"Ah...uh...you are...this is..."

Kurei:	"You are very shaken...everything will be explained."
		"Please come with me."
		"Let me tell you that you shouldn't have any thoughts of running away."
		"It has been decided that you will not escape..."

Pg. 10

Box:	"At the same time/4:02 PM"

Recca:	"Hime!!!"
		"...huh?"

Fuko:	"This is a hospital, so be more quiet, 'Sukpontan'."

Recca:	"What was that!!?"
		"Fuko..."
		"Domon!"

Pg. 11

Recca:	"Hospital?"
		"Why are we at the hospital!?"

Fuko:	I said be quiet!!

Domon:	What happened, Hanabishi!
		We came over to be included in your talk, and you had fainted along with a 
		woman who had serious injuries.

Fuko:	But they say she's in better condition now.

Recca:	"Is that right?"
		"Oku-san, will she be alright?"
		"..."
		"...Hey...Aren't Tatesako-sensei and Hime here?"

Fuko:	"Yanagi?"

Arrow:	Doesn't care about Tatesako.

Domon:	We were waiting to hear about them from you.

Recca:	"What did you say-!!?"

Fuko:	Shut up-!!

Domon:	["Fuko...He was disrespectful, but I wish you had a more delicate upbringing."]

Pg. 12

Kurei:	"Such a stern face you have there."
		"A drink would calm yourself."

Yanagi:	"I'm fine!!"

Kurei:	"Oya, oya, the lady has been angered."
		"A short time ago, my men were too forward...there is no excuse."
		But about that one woman, there's word she'll regain consciousness, in case you 
		were worried...

Pg. 13

Yanagi:	"Tatesako-sensei's wife is..."
		"!"
		["What an amazing face..."]

Kurei:	"He's Morikouran, my father."
		"A businessman who built a fortune in one lifetime."
		"Young lady...Do you know how one makes such a large amount of money?"
		"By continuously doing bad things."
		"Deceive people, blackmail, betray..."
		"You do all you need to do."
		"Eliminate all interference!!"

Pg. 14

Kurei:	"Sometimes, it is necessary to murder."
		"It's true.  Within Father's hand is wealth and power."
		"But human ambition...we are never fulfilled, able to want more."
		"Humans are animals which can't be satisfied."
		"The same can be said of Father..."

Morikouran:	["Life!!  Eternal Life!!"]

Pg. 15

Morikouran:	["Why must life end."]
		["Why must we grow old."]
		["Why must we waste away."]
		["I want to live for eternity.  To control people forever.  To hold a 
		woman forever.  To make money forever."]

Kurei:	"A childish dream do you think..."
		"But Father still searches for the key to solve his riddle."
		"The Hokage ninja clan-"
		"These ninja knew the 'Immortal Body Succession Technique'."
		"But-there is no descriptive contents about it, nothing in their records."
		"Even so, Father continued to probe."
		"And then...he found it."

Pg. 16

Kurei:	"Yes..."
		"It's you."
		"Within the ability to heal a person's wounds lies the hint to eternal life!"
		"That is what Father believes!!"

Pg. 17

Yanagi:	"I don't know about those things!!"
		"Please take me home!!"

Kurei:	"Just recently we found this camera recording of the incident in the 
		mirror house.  Your healing of this person was accidentally recorded."  
		A few of the police had seen this tape of that time, and had obtained it.  
		"Father was very happy."
		{Maniacal laughter}
		"In addition!!  We captured a man with knowledge about the Hokage as well 
		as the girl healer!!"
		"I'm sorry for not stopping..."

Yanagi:	"No...It's not..."

Pg. 19

Yanagi:	["Ah..."]
		["Flame..."]
		["The same power...as Recca-kun..."]

Kagehoushi (past):	"He will appear...full of madness...one other flame master."

Yanagi:	["As Kagehoushi said...it's true."]

Kurei:	"Koganei!  Aren't you here?"
		"Carefully carry this lady to the room from before."
		"Tatesako is to be in a separate room."

Pg. 20

Koganei:	"Hey, Kurei, you're not going to kill Neechan, are you?  I don't want that!!"

Kurei:	"Haha...Koganei is gentle."
		"She won't be killed...we only want to borrow her power..."

Pg. 21

Recca:	"Gunpowder balls, a must."  And 20 throwing knives.

Fuko:	Do-it's okay but only that 'cool moron' doesn't understand.
	"Listen, I know you've told us most of it, but an abduction?"

Domon:	"Her family may be wealthy, so this might be for a ransom."

Recca:	"Idiots-!!"

Writing:	Fuko  Domon

Recca:	"Those guys weren't after only one person."	
		"When the princess is in danger, the ninja goes to her."
		"I'm also worried about Tatesako-sensei..."

Fuko & Domon:	["He's treated as secondary..."]

Recca:	"I'll rescue them no matter!!"

Pg. 22

Domon:	"Oh, chivalry."

Fuko:	"I'll work with you!!"

Recca:	"Fuko!"

Fuko:	"Well!  Shall we go, Captain!!"

Recca:	"Alright!!"
		Let's go rescue Hime-sama!!

Domon:	"Where..."
		"Do you know where she is?"

Pg. 23

Chapter 2:  Infiltration

Pg. 24

Narration:	"In Recca's past, him seemed to be the only person who loved the ninja."
		"Tatesako Fukio-a Japanese history teacher.  He is also a person, like 
		Recca, who has a passion for the ninja.
		"The two had a mutual understanding."
		"Then, Recca wanted to hear about the existence of the mysterious ninja."
		"The Hokage ninja clan..."
		"This family did not have sufficient power, thus they had various tools as 
		supplements..."
		"To Recca's surprise, Fuko's Fuujin and Mikagami's Ensui were among these tools."
		"Then-"

Pg. 25

Narration:	"Two men appeared."

Boxes:	"Koganei Kaoru"
		"Nagai Mokuren"

Narration:	"Tatesako's wife, Hiroko, sustained serious injuries from Mokuren."
		"Both Tatesako and Yanagi were abducted."
		"Recca has decided to rescue them..."

Domon:	"Hey-do you know where Yanagi is?"

Narration:	"He was a moron."
		"That's when Recca thought to contact her."

Pg. 26

Recca:	"Kagehoushi-!!"

Pg. 27

Recca:	"Come out!  Woman!!"

Domon:	"Who's Kagehoushi?"
		It couldn't be that scary woman?

Fuko:	"Who else would he want to come other than her, yeesh."

Recca:	"This is your work, isn't it!?"
		"Come out and face me!!"

Fuko:	"You idiot!"
	"You think she'd just come out to your convenience?"

Domon:	"She's right, Hanabishi!"
		"You have too much confidence..."
		"Ah!"

Pg. 28

Kagehoushi:	"It's been a long time, you three."

Domon:	"She came out..."

Pg. 29

Recca:	"This is the place where you and I first met."
		"I had a feeling I could meet you here."
		"I'll ask you once!!"
		"Where have you taken Hime and sensei!!"

Kagehoushi:	"...This time"
		"It wasn't me..."
		"I wish you would believe me!"

Fuko:	"That's suspicious!  It's you!!"

Domon:	"Calm down, Fuko!!"
		You have nice breasts.

Pg. 30

Kagehoushi:	"It's called the 'Eikai ball'-"
		"The Hokage ninja clan's weapon of shadows."
		"Its ability is 'distant sight.'"
		"This ball has the power to see things placed far from here."
		"With its power, I have watched over Recca."

Pg. 31

Recca:	"Ah!!!"
		"It's Hime!!"

Domon:	"So, she's okay."

Fuko:	"Wait!!"
	"Seated in front of Yanagi..."
	"Who is he!?"

Pg. 32

Kagehoushi:  "The name of the masked man is 'Kurei'!!"

Recca:	"Kura...i?" {literally means dark/gloomy}

Domon:	"Ba-ka"

Kagehoushi:	"Ku-re-i."
		"The girl and the teacher are with him right now, and that's it."

Recca:	"Where?"
		"Where are they!!"

Kagehoushi:	"Tell me...what would you do?"

Recca:	"I have decided to sane them!  Damn it!!"

Kagehoushi:	"I can't..."

Pg. 33

Kagehoushi:	"If you go, you will die!"
		"I...don't want that!"
		"It's too early...It's impossible for you to go to Kurei so soon..."
		"Right now, at your 100%, you wouldn't be able to beat Kurei."
		"Therefore..."

Recca:	"Kagehoushi!!"

Pg. 34

Recca:	"Please!!"
		"Tell me!!"

Domon:	"Hanabishi is prostrating himself..."

Fuko:	"First time I've seen it."

Domon:	""With that mass of pride in him...That guy..."

Recca:	"Even if he's unbelievably strong..."

Kagehoushi:	"There will be death for you."

Recca:	"I will go!  Hime is the sovereign..."
		"I am ninja!!!"
		"I beg you."
		"Kagehoushi!"

Kagehoushi:	"..."
		"Stand up, Recca."

Pg. 35

Kagehoushi:	"I understand."
		"That's enough."
		"But in return..."
		"Return alive without fail!  Will you promise me that?"

Recca:	"I do I do I do-!!!"

Kagehoushi:	"Kyahh!"

Recca:	"Thank you, thank you!!"
		"You're not such a bad person in my opinion."
		"I've reconsidered."

Kagehoushi:	"..."
		"Kurei is three prefectures away in a mountain cabin.  The details are here-"

Fuko:	"Yoshi, are you going Recca!!"

Domon:	"Yosha!!"

Pg. 36

Recca:	"Hey, Kagehoushi."
		"In the chance I come back alive...There's a lot I want to hear about!"
		"Will you tell me everything!?"

Kagehoushi:	["About your respectable ninja upbringing...And everything other that 
		is necessary."]
		["At that time, I'll tell you everything...Your mother will tell you 
		everything."]

Pg. 37

Nurse:	"Ahh!"
		"Hey-This patient isn't allowed visitors!!"
		"What do you think you're doing!!"
		"Really!"
		"Oh."

Note:	"Get well soon!!  Recca Domon Fuko, too"

Pg. 38

Yanagi:	"It's cold..."
		"Mom...Dad...they must be getting worried..."
		["Recca-kun..."]

Recca:	["I'm going to save you now, Hime!!"]

Yanagi:	"Eh?"
		"That sounded like Recca-kun's voice..."
		"!?"
		"That sound?"

Pg. 39

Yanagi:	"Fireworks...Recca-kun!!?"

Kurei:	"What was that?"

Butler:	"Somebody has infiltrated this location."

Kurei:	"But why were fireworks set off, you imbecile!!"

Recca:	Sorry about the challenge signal; we can go now!
		"Wahahaha!!"

Domon:	What are you thinking!!

Recca:	I don't regret it.
		Let's go Devil Hunting.
